1950s Inspired Fashion Illustration

This evening I created an illustration to possibly use in my vintage fashion project (designing with materials module). I began by drawing an outline of the girls face in Illustartor using the pen tool, then filling her in with flat colour and some patterns which I created (spots and checks). I then used a water colour brush to create the finishing touches giving the design a hand painted artistic feel. I enjoyed working on this and am pleased with the outcome.

 I also created this hand drawn image below which I may use in my project on designing with materials.
